If true then why did voters vote in nancy pelosi and the democrats and that 1/3 of the GOP of Tancredos's immigration caucus, lost.

Two posters have shown this claim is a bald-faced lie. You need to stop making such.

The biggest door the election opened is comprehensive immigration reform, giving the Essential Worker Immigration Coalition, to which NRCA belongs, better prospects in the House for reform along the lines of President Bush's proposal. The election proved the one-dimensional hard-line approach to immigration espoused by House Republicans did not work, with almost one-third of the 31 Democrat House pickups coming from Rep. Tom Tancredo's (R-Colo.) anti-immigration caucus.

Excuse me, 1/3 of the democrat pickups came from Tancredo's immigration caucus.
